How and why do cardiovascular diseases interact with common mental health conditions? Funded by European Union’s Horizon 2020 research & innovation programme.
Analysing genetic data just got easier! Introducing COSGAP: a containerized toolkit for statistical genetics, simplifying software setup & analysis on HPC or personal computers. Free & open-source 🔗cosgap.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INTR… 🔗github.com/comorment/cont… #Bioinformatics #OpenScience
🔬 New research uncovers nearly 500 genetic sites that influence metabolism, showing how genes interact with sex to impact cholesterol, fat levels, and disease risk. A step toward personalized medicine! medrxiv.org/content/10.110… #Genetics #Metabolism #PrecisionHealth
We have a LinkedIn page where we are posting lay summaries of some of our research. Check it out at: linkedin.com/company/105525…
Our @CoMorMent study identifying genetic, immunometabolic, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors underlying the link between depression and cardiovascular disease in @NatureCVR, with @JoellePasman @oleaandreassen @UnnurAValdimars @mcintosh2001 @cathrynlewis nature.com/articles/s4416…
Happy #WorldMentalHealthDay! 🎗️💚🧠 As we learn more about #mentalhealth’s impact on the body, #cardiopsychiatry is emerging as a vital approach for caring for both mind and heart. What do you think the future holds for it? #hearthealth #psychiatry #psychology @OOTify
Physical & #MentalHealth are inextricably linked. We use a #BigData approach to investigate how & why mental ill-health interacts with cardiovascular disease. #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalHealth
By paying attention to those around you, it might just save a life.
Welcoming people in to hear more about our research, as part of #DoorsOpenDay Edinburgh
@CoMorMent preprint where we assess the shared genetic liability between major depressive disorder and cardiovascular disease, map it to tissues and brain cell-types, and identify causal pathways explaining the comorbidity. @JoellePasman medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
CoMorMent research examines the connections between mental illness and cardiovascular disease. One of the questions that came up at our annual meeting was how research findings in this field translate into clinical practice. Good to see funding for this from @NIHRresearch!
NIHR has invested £2 million into a new study dedicated to lessening the risk of cardiovascular disease in people with severe mental illness. Read more: nihr.ac.uk/news/new-resea…
Attendees at the CoMorMent annual meeting in Tallin, Estonia are sharing recent findings and planning next steps. #mentalhealth #cardiovascular
CoMorMent Researchers have gathered today in Tallin, Estonia, to discuss our most recent findings and make a plan for our final year of our EC project.
Happening today at 2pm BST! Sign up to hear about - the latest research on mental and physical health - how this research can inform clinical practice. eventbrite.co.uk/e/640466802447
The PGC MDD group took over @PGCgenetics twitter account for two weeks, covering the topics below. Forms a thorough introduction to MDD - great resource for students Thanks to 💫@karmelchoi & @jessmndy💫
That’s a wrap! Thanks for joining us for this #PGCMDD takeover. Which themes did you find most interesting? What other topics would you like to see in the future?
Did you know that #Autism can be mistaken for #depression and vice versa? @SineadRhodes & team co-created a new Neurodevelopmental Depression Inventory to help. If you are a clinician, take their 5-minute survey, to tell them how you might use it: forms.office.com/e/3SZaDkzPm5
The connection between mental and physical health is a hot topic these days. But what is the latest research? And how can health professionals use it in their clinical practice? Come along to our free webinar to find out! eventbrite.co.uk/e/640466802447
